(3) K-3 Illustrated by Courtney Dawson. A (fictional) story demonstrates the power of voting. As her grandmother campaigns in support of a vote to save the town's wilderness park, Callie participates in her class's election for their next field trip: cookie factory or wilderness park. Callie supports visiting the park and hopes to raise awareness about its importance in their community. Friendly cartoon illustrations show a diverse group of kids engaged in learning and eventually enjoying the winning trip to the wilderness. Information about elections and voting in the US, a voting rights timeline, and lists of related websites and books are appended.
